steph_porter 's review for:

The Winner's Crime by Marie Rutkoski
5.0

I absolutely loved the first book in this series and had crazy high expectations for the sequel. Maybe I set the bar too high, this was a great book no doubt. But not as good as the first I found. Writing style is top notch and easy to read however, I found the book really really depressing. I know its not supposed to be rosy, but I found there wasn't enough balance between depressing points and nice moments, leaving me feeling constantly shattered. But all in all good book. Cannot wait for the next one
